A magazine of 30,000 rounds, you call it Hanyang

Chapter 271: You little devils, come down here!

Hideichi Tanida couldn't understand why Nakamura Hideo would be afraid of a mere spearhead regiment when the Nakamura Brigade was so powerful that they could run rampant in southeastern Shanxi?

The area around Lujia Village is a basin terrain, which is a small plain.

Within a radius of dozens of miles, cavalry units and tanks can maneuver quickly.

The spearhead group has no defense at all.

How could we lose in a battle with Zheng Kaixuan on this kind of terrain?

In fact, Hideichi Tanida and Hideo Nakamura did not know that Yamamoto's army of 10,000 had been defeated.

If Hideo Nakamura knew that Yamamoto's puppet army's 8th Mixed Brigade was already destroyed, I am afraid that even with so many weapons and equipment, Hideo Nakamura would not dare to easily start a decisive battle with Zheng Kaixuan.

Hideo Nakamura was indeed very cautious this time.

His original plan was to wait until he met up with Yamamoto Ikki and the 20th Division, and then have a decisive battle with the Sharp Knife Regiment in Cangyunling or Yangcun area.

But how could Zheng Kaixuan allow him to act recklessly along the way? He led the sharp knife group straight towards him and killed him.

"Reporting to the General, Colonel Yamamoto Ikki is still unreachable."

"Commander Chuan'an's 4,000-strong force is approaching Wanjia Town from the west. They are expected to reach the Shijiapo area in half a day. The remaining large follow-up forces are expected to arrive within two days..."

Hideo Nakamura still contacted Yamamoto and Kawagishi.

Yamamoto could not be contacted. Although the Kawagishi Division was contacted, it was unable to reach the battlefield in a short time.

"General, it's just one spearhead regiment. Even if they're really good at fighting, and it's a 50-50 chance as you said, we shouldn't have any problem holding out for a few days. What are you worried about, General?"

Just then, a Japanese signalman quickly came up to the two of them.

"Report to the General, His Excellency the Chief of Staff, the Locust Army's fighter formation has arrived at the battlefield..."

"Buzz! Buzz buzz!"

Nakamura and Tanida walked out of the tent quickly, looked up and immediately saw the plane in the sky.

It was not until now that Hideo Nakamura felt a little more confident.

"I didn't expect the fighter planes from the front headquarters to arrive so promptly. It looks like they must have set off very early."

"That's fine!"

Hideo Nakamura took a deep breath and finally made up his mind.

"Declare war on the Sharp Knife Regiment!"

An hour ago, inside the Sharp Knife Special Operations Team.

Zhao Gang and Xing Zhiguo refuted Zheng Kaixuan's decision to fight for the first time.

"No, Lao Zheng, I absolutely don't agree with you doing this."

At that time, the 2,000-man Sharp Knife Regiment and Independent Regiment led by Zheng Kaixuan and Li Yunlong were located on the edge of the small basin in Lujia Village.

It is backed by mountains and faces the small plain of Lujia Village.

Zheng Kaixuan proposed a bold tactic, entering the plain with a radius of dozens of miles and surrounding the Japanese brigade.

Out of caution, Zhao Gang and Xing Zhiguo refused to agree with Zheng Kaixuan's decision.

Zhao Gang's face darkened and he looked serious.

"It seems the headquarters chief's prediction was absolutely correct. Old Zheng, you're just impatient and prone to underestimating the enemy and taking risks."

"Nakamura's brigade has over 10,000 men, a numerical advantage, and more weapons and equipment. It would be unwise to engage such a behemoth head-on on the plains."

"We should use the mountains as obstacles to ambush the Japanese, taking them by surprise and striving to inflict the greatest casualties on them while minimizing our own losses."

Xing Zhiguo's tone was relatively mild, but he also opposed Zheng Kaixuan's approach.

"Old Zheng, I have to say something. You're taking too much of a risk. The Nakamura Brigade is no match for the half-baked 8th Mixed Brigade led by Yamamoto Ikki in every way."

"Who are the people in the 8th Mixed Brigade? They are just puppet troops with little combat effectiveness. There are more than 10,000 real devils here."

Zheng Kaixuan smiled indifferently.

"Old Zhao, Old Xing, I know you're doing this for the good of the soldiers and for my own good, but aren't we out here this time to proactively seek a decisive battle?"

"Nakamura's devils have already discovered us. Setting an ambush in the mountains is probably out of the question. Furthermore, this battle must be fought quickly. Otherwise, once the Kawagishi Division closes in and surrounds us, we'll be in trouble..."

What Zheng Kaixuan said made sense, and Zhao Gang and Xing Zhiguo couldn't find any words to refute it for a moment.

So the two of them turned their eyes to Li Yunlong.

"Lao Li, what do you think?"

Li Yunlong laughed and stood on Zheng Kaixuan's side without hesitation.

"What's there to argue about? I think Brother Kaixuan is right. He picked the softest persimmon first. If he didn't destroy the Nakamura Brigade first, he would definitely go and crush the Kawagishi Division first..."

Zhao Gang was so angry that his nose was crooked.

Li Yunlong was obviously avoiding the topic and interrupting the conversation.

"Old Li, seriously, look at you..."

Seeing Zhao Gang's expression, Li Yunlong became serious.

"Triumph, I have no objection to a head-on confrontation with Nakamura on the plains. But tell me honestly, do you have the ability to carry out a drone formation bombing on the scale of Wanjia Town again?"

Before Zheng Kaixuan could answer, Xing Zhiguo began to shake his head.

"That's impossible, Lao Li. Last time, Lao Zheng lost a total of 3,000 unmanned aircraft, and it's only been a few days. Where can we..."

Xing Zhiguo stopped talking halfway through.

The military truck of the Sharp Knife Regiment had already driven in front of him. Zheng Kaixuan signaled his soldiers to open the door. Inside the car, there were actually a swarm of small drones, just like the last time.

"Old Zheng, the plains are vast. If the Japanese send fighter planes to bomb us, we will inevitably suffer heavy losses. How can we solve this problem?"

Zhao Gang stared at Zheng Kaixuan's eyes very seriously.

"Are you sure you can shoot down all the Japanese fighter planes? That's all I have to ask you. If you can do it, we will immediately agree to your plan."

Zheng Kaixuan nodded without hesitation.

"Yes, below the cross, I will make sure they never come back!"

"it is good!"

Seeing that Zheng Kaixuan was so confident, Zhao Gang and Xing Zhiguo said no more.

Following Zheng Kaixuan's arrangement, several people led a team each and quickly formed a siege more than ten kilometers around the Nakamura Brigade.

Not long after the encirclement was formed, there was a sudden loud roar in the sky.

One after another, Japanese fighter planes suddenly appeared and came one after another.

"Take cover! Everyone, take cover!"

Zhao Gang, Xing Zhiguo, Li Yunlong and others quickly arranged for the soldiers to hide.

But, where can there be any place to hide in such a flat area?

All three of them picked up the walkie-talkie at the same time.

"Old Zheng, now it's up to you, kill them!"

Zheng Kaixuan had actually made preparations a long time ago.

The fifteenth-level Triumph anti-aircraft gun was already pointing to the sky, and Zheng Kaixuan was personally operating the gun.

On the radar system display screen, a crisp mechanical sound is constantly broadcasting.

"Radar warning, eight enemy planes are approaching one after another."

"Radar detected the target."

"Radar has locked onto the target!"

Zheng Kaixuan immediately pressed the launch button, and a huge high-explosive shell soared into the air like lightning and pierced the sky with a whoosh.

"Little devils, get down here!"
